———-SETTING———-

Much of the morning and afternoon on Saturday, the Glen was a hive of activity as signs of the previous night's festivities were cleaned up and the set up for the Pavilion took focus. Dozens of men bustled to lay flooring panels that a team of mages bespelled to take " for the event " a semblance of smooth and seamless stone, perfect for those slender-heeled shoes many of the ladies would be wearing. Billowing white canvas took shape beneath the blue sky, reaching for the heavens as seven main posts rose and the leads were anchored in the ground around the space.

On one end of the pavilion, a buffet and a bar was spread across a line of long, tables. Every dainty thing imaginable was available to delight the tasters. On the opposite end side of the long canopy, a band was tucked into a corner, while a space with a charming view of the lake was set aside especially for the main event of the evening: the dancing.

From without, the structure glowed like amber capiz, lit with hundreds of white tapers fixed amid the centerpieces of hydrangea, roses and greenery that crowned each table. Inside, the space was warm and intimate; the canopy was spangled with twinkling fae-lights, mimicking the night sky above them and adding a luster to everything below.

At the appointed time, guests would be encouraged to step outside, to view the dramatic fireworks display, staged to ignite over the lake where both sky and water would dazzle onlookers. For some, this may mark the close to a delightful evening, but the band will continue to play well into the wee hours for those so inclined. Others might take that as their cue to seek out the private tents dotting the woods for one last night a-Maying in the Glen.
